HOW he does that is by challenging the status quo and thinking differently. Ultimately, WHAT Drew brings to the table is a way to contribute and add value by having an impact on the lives of others. It wasn't always this way. For most of his life, he was concerned with what people thought of him and how he was supposed to act. He wore many masks to either fit in or be accepted. He didn't realize he was a people pleaser, hiding his authentic self. Fast forward... In a 9-month span a few years ago, he endured four faith-shaking life events that caused him to question his existence and determine his purpose in life. Why was he here? Drew is the proud father of three children, a daughter and two sons. His oldest son was born with autism spectrum disorder and is, what the experts call, "high functioning," previously called "Asperger's" - cognitively strong and socially and emotionally delayed. Now a Caregiver Coach, Drew supports families caring for those with special needs and fathers caring for children who have autism spectrum disorder to navigate the system for appropriate services for their loved ones and themselves.   Connect with Drew Deraney!
